I’m confused, doesn’t worsening material conditions count as political utility in his eyes?

Edit:I normally wouldn’t have an issue, since it’s actually pretty sane, but I literally thought to myself today “it would be funny if BE said Kirk’s death was a bad thing because adventurism will make things worse.” I was joking. I’m starting to hypothosize that economists [both accelerationist and reformists] are actually simps for the status quo

    If he hadn’t post this, I wouldn’t have known that things would get worse. Thank god for BE.

    Seriously tho, it’s getting hard to tell whether he’s just trolling nowadays or if he genuinely believes what he says on social media anymore. Who hasn’t anticipated that this incident will be used to incite even more violent retaliation against the left. He says this as if he were the first with this take. Acceleration of the cruel inevitable or not, the right would have always done what they wanted but they’ll surely grasp at whatever reasons to support their cause. Hate it how his superfans get so worked up when you give him some criticisms and god is he so quick to call people idiots or assume others are American for questioning him instead of engaging in good faith discussion. I’m a huge fan of his work but he can be so exhausting sometimes.
